"Toy Dinosaur" by Michael

When a caregiver asked Michael to create a painting based on his toy plastic dinosaur as a model, this is what Michael painted. Just before finishing the piece, he turned the painting over and pressed it to the ground, thus producing the dinosaur's scales.

"Me, Myself, Good" by Michael

Michael's powerful self-portrait, signed with his own handprint (to scale). If you look closely at the colorful shape to the left of the handprint, you may see a gorilla profile (as one autistic student observed).
